Just a quick note to say welcome back to school. Many thanks to those who worked through the summer to make our Back to School day a big success. Teachers have beenworking hard to ensure that the classrooms are ready. Our staff has done an incredible job in cleaning up the campuses. Our administrators have been planning for the new year too.

Special thanks need to go out to everyone who is working hard to make this school year special despite teh budget cuts and challenges we've seen. Many thanks to LAEF for their increased commitment this year. Thanks, too, to our PTA's for stepping up. Our kids will all benefit from the hard work of these parent leaders. Of course they're all depending on us to do our part, so if you haven't yet made a commitment to the LAEF, or written a check to your PTA, please support them as they ensure your child has a spectacular school year.

About Me

I have 1 child in the LASD schools, and 1 who has graduated and moved on to high school. After several years of active volunteer work, I got involved in the school board. In the fall of 2009, I was elected to the Board of Trustees. I am grateful for the trust the community has placed in me. I intend to continue to use this blog to share my thoughts about district matters.

I have a passion for using technology to solve problems in new ways. I draw on my experience at a subscription billing company and past tech ventures to inform new approaches to solving longstanding issues in education. It isn't always comfortable for folks, but I believe there is a lot of cross-polination that can happen.

Please remember that this blog is my personal blog, and does not reflect the opinion of the Board as a group. No statements made here can be considered an offical policy of the Board, and this does not replace actions by the Board in any way. However, I'm happy to share what I can and I look forward to hearing your thoughts too.
